We derive sub-Gaussian bounds for the annealed transition density of the simple random walk on a high-dimensional loop-erased random walk. The walk dimension that appears in these is the exponent governing the space-time scaling of the process with respect to the extrinsic Euclidean distance, which contrasts with the exponent given by the intrinsic graph distance that appears in the corresponding quenched bounds. We prove our main result using novel pointwise Gaussian estimates on the distribution of the high-dimensional loop-erased random walk.
